Sadly, we have asked to stand a Flag Line to honor Manuel Cardoza Jr, who served in the US Army and Army Reserves during the Korean War. He was also active in the VFW and American Legion, and was a Gold Circle member of the Preston VFW post 9542. He was also Past Commander of American Legion Post #4 in Norwich. He was inducted into the State of Connecticut Veterans Hall of Fame in 2012. We will stand a Flag Line for the service at the church. Interment will be private.

Assistant State Captain Jack Casey will be RCIC and Flags and water will be on site.
